Up in a meadow in Jasper, AlbertaTwo men and four ponies on a long, lonesome rideTo see the high country and learn of her peopleThe ways that they live there, the ways that they dieOne is a teacher, and one a beginnerJust wanting to be there, wanting to know

And together they're trying to tell us a storyThat should have been listened to long, long agoHow the life in the mountains is living in dangerFrom too many people, too many machinesAnd the time is upon us, today is foreverTomorrow is just one of yesterdays dreams

Cold nights in Canada and icy blue windsThe man and the mountains are brothers againClear waters are laughing, they sing to the skiesThe Rockies are living, they never will dieUp in a meadow in Jasper, AlbertaTwo men and four ponies on a long, lonesome ride.
